The Difference between gif, RAW, JPEG, PNG, etc

There are many differences between these file formats. For example, RAW  files are processed directly from the camera’s sensor, which makes them not  use compression due to the fact that  they are loss less and makes the images extremely high-quality. They show more shades of colours and better representation of white balance, contrast, exposure  etc. In addition, changes made to RAW files are non-destructive. Only the meta data that controls the rendering is altered, but the original file data remains untouched. GIF, or Graphics Interchange Format, is great  for graphics and visuals with animation and many web designers use them to create a sharp-eyed line artworks such as simple logos and banners. Unfortunately there's a downside to using  GIF files, the data compression makes it an extremely loss,which makes it not recommended for photos. PGN or better known as Portable Network Graphics, was originally created as a replacement for GIF and is mostly used by photographe

Window vs. Mac

          Window is basically a PC and everyone knows that Macs are PCs. If we were to talk about Macs operating system then Mac can actually run Windows. Some of the differences between the two is the experience. Windows 8 tried so hard to try to integrate touch based computers in desktops and some people didn't want it. Recently Windows 10 has started to repair that mistake and is doing an amazing job at it but it still doesn't compare to Mac who is clean, redefined, stable and way nicer to spend your time with. A bad thing about Windows or PC is that there are too many to choose from.  Because PCs don't come from a single manufacturer there are hundreds of PCs on the market. But none of these have the single vision guiding them that Macs offer. When it comes to security,   Mac users have flaunted the apparent invulnerability of their systems in the faces of PC using friends.  Macs are continually shown to suffer less attacks than Windows-based PCs and by quite alot.

What does a CTE diploma mean to me?

There are many differences between a Region's and an Advance Region's diploma. One of them is that an  Advance Region's diploma would show that you did way more work than what was required to graduate high school. It shows that you are a student who exceeded in school and it tends to be recommended for students who will attend college after high school. Both diplomas are good but the Advance Region's diploma can save you a lot of time and money because some colleges tend to exempt you from taking certain courses because you have already meet the requirements for the Advance Region's diploma. A Region's diploma requires you to have 8 credits in Math, 6 in Science, 8 in Social Studies, 2 in LOTE and in Visual Art, Music, Dance and/or Theater, 4 in PE,1 in Health, 7 Electives and in total have 44 credits. The exam requirements are of 65+ on the ELA regents exam, 65+ on one math exam, 65+ on one social studies exam, 65+ on one science exam, it doesn't require y

"Literally my Life" My biography

My name is Dayanna Arias and I'm a sophomore at Information Technology High School. I am in the Visual Design CTE academy and the reason I am interested in this field of study is because I find it very interesting and in my opinion in the future, in any job that you pick, you're going to need at least something that you are going to learn in this academy. For example, business cards are something everyone needs no matter what job they have because how else are they going to promote the best thing they are good at which is their job. It would save many people time and money that it requires to order and purchase these cards. Who better to do your business card than yourself because you already know what you want in your card and how you want it. The same thing goes for when you are creating a logo for let's say your company. Since you already know how to do it, you wouldn't need to go through all the hassle to find someone that can do it for you and sometimes you mi
